Taking an earthier look at the primary colour pallet, Going Mobile celebrates the joys of discovery and visual play. The series takes cues from a child's mobile - a stimulating, sensory experience with endless visual possibilities. Forms and colours, just far enough out of reach to encourage the imagination to fill in the blanks on it's own terms.
My painting projects are typically informed by each other. So the process and parts that I loved from the previous set of paintings will often find their way into the next set. This means that the whole output from my studio can follow a unique and personal lineage to myself.

Additional Information:
This artwork is exclusive to Art Republic. Taking an earthier look at the primary colour pallete, Going Mobile celebrates the joys of discovery and visual play. The series takes cues from a child's mobile - a stimulating, sensory experience with endless visual possibilities. Forms and colours, just far enough out of reach to encourage the imagination to fill in the blanks on it's own terms.The paintings are unexplained snapshots. They give the painted surface springboards for the mind to roam and play. The collection is a positive reminder that our experience of life is as joyful and exciting as we choose to interpret it. We all have this choice and with these paintings, Darren encourages us to lead with curiosity.

“As children we experience the world through a lens of awe and wonder. It’s a truly joyful time filled with adventure, exploration and curiosity. Without any preconceptions shadowing our mind, It’s a very honest and highly tactile way in which we experience our existence. As we develop towards adulthood, our creative spirit can become curtailed as we find ourselves being more self-aware and more self-conscious. Our preconceptions of the world around us tend to guide our decision making and definitions of ‘what is’ and ‘what is not’ can often become the compass in which we navigate our experiences of life. My mission is to make tangible this sense of unchained creative freedom and use it to encourage and revive the limitless possibilities of an adventurous mind. When we re-imagine our surroundings, we open doors to new thoughts and creative opportunities. Integrating this mindset into our every-day lives can enrich our worlds for the better, and my artworks serve to transport it’s viewers right to the VIP section!”
We love how Darren actively encourages the viewers of his work to be playful and creative.
